This is my 2nd Petrified Fish, and once again I am very pleased. This PFP03 Victor (black Micarta/black stonewashed) blew me away by the bang for the buck. The Micarta handles are comfy, fit well, and look great. The stonewashed K110 blade is flawless. It came sharp, well-centered, has good detent, opens fairly snappy, and had very little play. The liner lock feels very solid. I've spent far more than this on a knife, and the fit and finish is right up there with the industry leaders. PF is punching well above their weight class and offer a fantastic value. I would definitely recommend this product. Read more
I'm shocked this knife is perfect. There's not one thing I can complain about. Heavy duty, smooth action, razor sharp and beautiful. I did get bit, I'm not a big fan of spydy flicks but it has that beautiful fuller as a deployment method I had to try it out. And it got me a Lil. LOL, that's all good I'm even more impressed. The micarta was light green but grinding my sweaty palms and a bit of blood into it to force a natural patena and looks darker already. For the price, even up to 60$ I don't think there's a better knife for me. If you like real lightweight thin profile figit toys, this probably isn't for you. If you actually work and your knife is a tool and you want it to look great 👍 Check this out! ....Update Aug,27 2025.... I been using it in rotation as my edc Bearings started to get gritty so I opted to take it apart and clean it. Scales come off seperate from the actual steel liners. Pretty cool. So I rough sanded the green micarta and dyed them black with Ritt Dye. Let it dry for 24hrs then fine sanded up to 2k grit. Then used some mineral oil as a protective finish. It came out really cool! Bearings clean right up, oiled and put back together easily. I did strip one screw it's stuck in the outer scale on the clip side. No big deal for me Anyway, micarta feels great polished. Looks black until you angle it in the light you can see the green pop through kinda like snake skin. Micrta is now very grippy even though silky smooth. The knife is great for regular edc tasks, not the most practical for construction all day. Still hones right back razor sharp. D2 is quality here compared to some Chinese manufacturers who have given it a bad name. I'm including some pics of how it looks now. ✌️ PF are my favorite budget knives without a doubt Read more
The knife is great. Blade moves smoothly and lock up is tight no up down or side to side movement. Looks perfectly centered. There is a little jimping on the flipper which could be more grippy but works ok. There is no notch in the blade for a right hand thumb open option. The milled out area in the blade is on the side opposite from a right hand thumb open option which imo is a miss but not a deal killer. The blade is very sharp the grind is even and well executed. All in all the knife is as good as any I have seen and hits well above its price point. Sits low in the pocket almost too low weight isn’t bad blade looks decently thick and sturdy though the liner lock is only 50% or so engaged with the blade when open but seems to hold solid.

Super nice knife. Feels and looks much more expensive than it is. I own a bunch of pocket knives and the quality of this one doesn't take a back seat to any of them. Very nicely packaged but the nicest thing I found in the box (besides the knife) was several replacement screws for the clip and side covers. We've all lost a screw now and then from a knife and then I stop at the hardware store looking for a match to replace it. Having them send extras was a very nice touch. Then knife is a little bigger than most of the pocket knifes I carry daily, but it's not an issue. Operation is smooth and the knife isn't too heavy either. Read more
I like this knife! It has a sturdy, well-made K110 steel blade with comfortable Micarta handles. The looks of the blade have grown on me. It locks up firmly as long as I apply enough flipper force to fully engage the locking mechanism. The lock only grabs the edge of the blade so I'm mindful of that (thus 4 stars). I like the pocket clip. It's wide, slides onto the pocket easily, is comfortable and big enough to find in an instant. This is a good knife-not too heavy-with a very sturdy, SHARP blade. Read more
This is a great knife to add to your collection or to just have as your one and only knife. Let me get my criticism out of the way...I wish the bill on the pocket clip was rounded rather than squared off. That's it...My only criticism. The micarta looks great and feels right. The blade is flawlessly ground and came with the best factory edge I have seen in a long time. The action is superb and satisfying whether using the flipper or the reverse flick. The lock up is perfect and the fit and finish is perfect. I have many knives in this price range and this knife beats them all as well as some in my collection at twice the price. Another nice touch is that they include six extra screws in case you lose or strip the ones on the knife during maintenance. All knife companies should do this. This knife is a winner. Read more
Great knife for the money. Very sharp right out of the box. Very smooth action. I love it! Read more
These are surprisingly nice, for a brand I've never heard of. The clip seems well built, the lock mechanism seems trust worthy, the blade is holding an edge pretty good so far, and it has nice weight, doesn't feel like a flimsy piece of crap. Read more
